Massey Boy Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 nice didnt no you could silage this time of year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc cormick Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Where in Ireland is it? Do you know it is december not the the middle of the summer and plus it is st stephens day could they not wait tell tomorrow to pick it up. The tractor looks savage with the symth. But i would like a thrope of redrock. But the Thrope would have to be my favourite it is the best trailer to pull with a load of silage or maize or grass. Was their just the one tractor their. Mc Cormick mtx 140 and 20 foot thrope all the way. james Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPN Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 I think they are zero grazing at the moment so it is one trailer load per day. Fleet comprises a TS110, 2xTS115, TS115A, TM120 and TM150. There are also two or three Deutz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texas Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Nice pictures. I have never seen at this time off year grass silage at this part off europe. Is this grass for dry cows or heifers? Because from this grass the cows will give no milk. Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 well thats a new one on me stan, foraging on boxing day, almost seems wrong to be cutting grass at this time of the year. did they have a bad cut over the summer then to justify this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc cormick Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 That is explaring you they are picking up this time of year. But could they not bring in a couple of loads to cover of loads to cover them from cristmas. that is a nice fleet of gear they have. when was the grass knocked? james Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mc cormick Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 if you are zero grazing you knock it and pick up straight away. but it looks like the grass was knocked awhile ago. james Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
412s Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 am the grass was knocked about a week ago but when the weather got wet we couldnt really pick it up because the graound was wet. am no this is the first time we ever done zero grazing so far we have just knocked about 80 acres but during the summer we could cut anything from about 800 to a 1000 acres between firts and second cut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
